Job satisfaction and job performance: is the relationship spurious?Cook, Allison Laura 15 May 2009 (has links)
The link between job satisfaction and job performance is one of the most studied
relationships in industrial/organizational psychology. Meta-analysis (Judge, Thoresen,
Bono, & Patton, 2001) has estimated the magnitude of this relationship to be ρ = .30.
With many potential causal models that explain this correlation, one possibility is that
the satisfaction-performance relationship is actually spurious, meaning that the
correlation is due to common causes of both constructs. Drawing upon personality
theory and the job characteristics model, this study presents a meta-analytic estimate of
the population-level relationship between job satisfaction and job performance,
controlling for commonly studied predictors of both. Common causes in this study
include personality trait Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and core selfevaluations,
along with cognitive ability and job complexity. Structural equation
modeling of the meta-analytic correlation matrix suggests a residual correlation of .16
between job satisfaction and performance—roughly half the magnitude of the zero-order
correlation. Following the test of spuriousness, I then propose and find support for an
integrated theoretical model in which job complexity and job satisfaction serve as
mediators for the effects of personality and ability on work outcomes. Results from this model suggest that job complexity is negatively related to satisfaction and performance,
once ability and personality are controlled. Contributions of this paper include
estimating the extent to which the satisfaction-performance relationship is partly
spurious, which is an advancement because the attitude-behavior link has not been
estimated in light of personality and job characteristics. Another contribution is the
integrated theoretical model, which illuminates mediators in some of the effects of
personality and ability.

A study of the relationship between occupational stress and person-environment fitFilkins, Carol R. January 1990 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between personenvironment fit (P-E fit) and occupational stress. All 31 employees of the University Police Department of Ball State University were invited to participate in the study on a voluntary basis, and were assured anonymity. Participants completed a demographic information sheet and three questionnaires: the Work Environment Scale, Ideal (WES-I) and Real (WES-R) versions, and the Occupational Stress Inventory (OSI). Twenty-two participants turned in completed test packets. Raw scores were calculated and graphed for individuals (OSI) and the entire group (WES). A correlation matrix with Pearson r as the correlation coefficient among the 14 OSI subscales and the 10 WES subscales was used to examine the relationship between P-E fit and occupational stress. Different patterns of occupational stress and work environment were found. The three job subgroups (police officers, radio dispatchers, and "other") exhibited different levels of occupational stress, with the most difference in the Physical Environment subscale. The group perceptions of the ideal and real work environments were different on every WES subscore, indicating employees wanted improvement in each area tested. Radio dispatchers were found to have the widest gap between their ideal and real work environments. There appeared to be no significant relation between occupational stress and P-E fit for this small sample. The results suggested an inverse relationship between a University police department employee's occupational stress and how well that employee fits the work environment for four variables: Role Insufficiency, Role Boundary, Vocational Strain, and Psychological Strain. Those who fit the work environment least scored highest on the Rational/Cognitive Coping variable, the only statistically significant correlation. It is possible the work environment may have such a powerful effect on personal life that it is unaffected by personal efforts to change it. Recognition of the different work environments and occupational stress levels could be useful in departmental planning. Further study is suggested. / Institute for Wellness

Age and sex : the relationship upon perceived job satisfaction among exempt level employeesWills, Beverly R. January 1982 (has links)
The purpose of the study was to investigate and analyze perceived intrinsic satisfaction, extrinsic satisfaction, and general job satisfaction among exempt level employees. Specifically, the study was designed to identify job satisfaction relative to employee age and sex. The research was conducted in a manufacturing organization listed in Fortune 500.Data collection involved the administration l: confidential self-report instrument (Minnesotasatisfaction Questionnaire, Short Form) regarding employee perceptions of job satisfaction. The final sample included fifty-seven exempt level employees of which. twenty- six were female and thirty-one were male. The average age the male was 37.3 years and for females 32.8 years. The average age of the two groups was 34.5 years. Data obtained from the respondents were analyzed by applying a 2 x 3 analysis of variance with the factors of age and sex considered to be fixed.An analysis made of the data obtained from the respondents determined no significant correlation of intrinsic satisfaction, extrinsic satisfaction, and general job satisfaction existed relative to respondent age. The data, however, did indicate a significant correlation between intrinsic satisfaction and general job satisfaction did exist relative to respondent sex. No correlation between extrinsic satisfaction relative to respondent age was found.The data further found both male and female groups described job security to be the source of highest satisfaction. Advancement was the source of least satisfaction for both groups.

The feasibility study of teleworkingChen, Hsien-Chang 24 June 2012 (has links)
In the rapid improvement of network communication, some phenomena are been changing and multi working style is one of them. This study focus on ¡uTeleworkig¡vthat is one of the new working style. The concept of global village has been made under the process of globalization. Furthermore, the relationship between Taiwan and China becomes closer and how to manage the employees more flexible, using telework for Taiwanese corporations might be a good time now. How to select the suitable person as teleworker is what this study wants to discuss.
The samples were from the social networking of author of this study via internet to collect the questionnaire. These samples did not limit in industry¡Bbusiness style or position and there were 105 valid questionnaires collected. Via the data of collected questionnaires to analysis what kind of industry¡Bbusiness style and position are suitable for teleworking and try to find the relationship between teleworking and job performance. The discussion of this study is how to select the suitable person as teleworker and also has good job performance then to discuss the possibility of promoting the teleworking. This study used three relative constructs of personality such as job autonomy¡Bgeneral cognitive ability and job motivation to discuss the influence with teleworking and job performance.
This study was discovered job autonomy and job motivation are positive influence to job performance, but not general cognitive ability. Meanwhile, there was no obvious relationship between teleworking and job performance. For corporations, people who have higher job autonomy and job motivation are the basic requirement to recruit the employees. It would succeed to run teleworking easily if the employees have these two personalities.
